Saving Lives with Serum Albumin. Doctors today know the riddle of why an injured man, his wounds perfectly treated, may still not recover. He may be a victim of "shock", a dangerous trend toward failure of blood circulation. Unless this trend is promptly reversed, the effect is fatal. Now doctors have anew tool to fight shock - a tool newer than blood transfusions or plasma. This discovery, concentrated Serum Albumin, when used in shock cases, actually draws fluid from the body tissues into the circulation to make up the loss. This Human Serum Albumin is made from the blood you donate. Squibb Laboratories were among the first to produce Serum Albumin for our Armed Forces. ..... 1944 Squibb Ad, A5132.
